Travel back in time to the private Pullman train car, the Constitution. Built in 1905, it served as Air Force One for presidents Harding and Wilson. The original car consists of four state rooms, an observation deck, a dining room, and a galley. Two large living rooms with fireplaces, a master bedroom and bathroom have been added on. When the president of Illinois Railway Museum visited, he said it was the most well-preserved Pullman train car in the U.S.

The train car sits atop a bluff overlooking the beautiful slow-moving Big Rock Creek. Beyond the creek is a floodplain full of two hundred-year-old oak trees and an occasional eagle or two! The traincar has a very country feel.

The small farming town of Plano is a five minute drive away.

Amy and her family were great host, we enjoyed our stay in Plano. The views from the traincar are exceptional with a great nature trail walk into town. I had work to be completed while on vacation and the the traincar provided the perfect work office. This home is not handicap accessible and needs a good spingcleaning.

This place is so special! We really appreciate the hosts making it available for guests, as it is so unique. The hosts were communicative and welcoming throughout, and you could tell that they really wanted to make our stay pleasurable. We loved stepping back in time and being able to stay in such a historical and interesting setting. All of the original fixtures, wood, and glass were amazing. The surroundings are serene and there are several nearby walking paths to explore. We cooked every meal in the well-equipped kitchen and enjoyed being able to eat at the various tables inside and out. We also had fun playing games in the cozy living room. We imagine it would be fun to light a fire in the winter. This is obviously a well-loved and well-used family retreat. It definitely has some quirks (electrics, water, air-conditioning) but that all feels like part of the adventure and did not detract from our fabulous time here.

Contact was easy. GPS took us to the home easily. We were met by Amy's mother and she gave us a tour and instructions. Our hosts were very nice, helpful and quick to respond. This place is definitely a well loved home. It has been in their family for years. The train car is huge and mostly original. It is beautiful. I would describe the home, the additions, as having a rustic cabin feel. We have traveled and rented many interesting homes and I have been looking into renting a converted train car...but this is something very different. This is a piece of history. Because we were there in November, We spent most of our time in the winter room in front of the fireplace reading and playing games. The house sits above a large creek. From the windows are fantastic views of it. The property is really very beautiful and it was wonderful walking around in the leaves! Before we left, I located a craft fair in a near by town. We shopped then went out to dinner. It was a great afternoon. Then we went back to the property to relax and play board games. I have already recommended this place to friends. Only negative is the sulfur in he water. It does smell. The hosts did provided drinking water. Would love to go back when warmer to have the windows open, spend more time outside and listen to the water and birds!

Marcy2016-11-13T00:00:00Z

The host was incredibly responsive and the home was incredibly unique and cozy. We would stay there again!

Mary2016-12-24T00:00:00Z

The Pullman was super fun! Great beds, well stocked kitchen, and lots of room to have fun. The lands around this unique stay are a protected park. Lots of quiet paths along the beautiful creek. We want to come back with a bigger group.

Jean 2017-03-05T00:00:00Z

This is a wonderful, quiet, and peaceful place for a vacation - not to mention you get to step back in time in American History. Amy is a great host and excellent at communicating. We would definitely stay here again if the opportunity came up.

Matt2017-04-01T00:00:00Z

Our organization has been searching for a perfect secluded and rustic retreat space close to Chicago for years --- and we finally found it! Amy, Carol, and family are absolutely wonderful and their home is filled with love, timeless treasures, and warmth. If you are looking for a place to retreat, you've found it.

Owen 2017-04-30T00:00:00Z

We had a great time in the Pullman car! The location is perfect, close to the city but a world away. The combination of the train and the built-on living and sun rooms is ideal, making the place somehow both cozy and still completely unique. The setting on the bluff over the creek is gorgeous. Starved rock, Matthiessen state park and Utica's little restaurant scene are also within an easy 45 minute drive - although the train's galley kitchen is more than sufficient for cooking at home too. It would be a cool spot for a family with kids and anyone who wants an unusual but also comfy get away.

This home in Oswego, Illinois, is spacious (like having your own private hotel) and ideal for families, groups of friends, business groups, and those in the industry. Great location in a family neighborhood just 5 blocks from Fox River 15 minutes from Naperville, 45 minutes from Ohare Airport.
The “ loft" style living room features 25 foot ceilings: The living room opens to a private back yard. Part of it fenced if you have small children.
Cook in our spacious kitchen with stainless steel appliances. Barbecue in the back yard.
The house is baby friendly; we have safety gate on the stairs, and a fenced yard, 1 high chair and 1 crib/cot available at no extra charge. The house is ideal for families with babies or toddlers, and we are located walking distance to a huge playground area and Lake. We have Canoes that can be used on the lake or river a few blocks away.
Sleeping arrangements: the master has a King bed, the Cellar guest bedroom has a King bed , and the rear guest bedroom has a queen bed and the center bed room has a queen bed, the office room converted to bedroom has a full bed. Additionally, there are two full size roll-aways, and in the cellar and a queen memory foam futon. Those four "portable" beds and be placed in the cellar or living room.
Upstairs, the master suite has a King Bed, private bathroom with shower and soaker tub with twin vanity.
The sofas are also suitable for sleeping up to 3 children if you bring sleeping bags, ( or extra bedding is available) but the sofa is not counted in the overall sleeping capacity of the house which I put at just 10 because that is the level at which everyone has lots of room. But if you had two families with kids, you could squeeze as many kids into the house as you needed to.
Enjoy full use of the laundry room with washer and dryer, iron and steamer.
PLEASE NOTE:Hosting of social events or parties is STRICTLY BY PERMISSION ONLY at the property. There will be ADDITIONAL charges please contact me with number of people attending.
Oswego's westside location is ideal home base to explore all that Chicago has to offer: Navy Pier,Willis Tower, Art institute of Chicago, Shedd Aquarium, Field Museum of Natural History, Museum Of Science and Industry, Wriggly Field, Adler Planetarium, John Hancock Center, Chicago Children's Museum, Lincoln Park Conservatory, Chicago Theater, Fermi Lab. Fermilab is America's particle physics and accelerator laboratory.
Shopping in Chicago boils down to where, not what. Front and center, Michigan Avenue is the well-traveled main drag, covering basics to the most revered names in fashion. The doors at American Girl's flagship store are constantly turning out happy girls with big red bags. Beyond the crowds, luxurious streets accommodate a haven of high-end shopping. West Town looks a bit different from the polished facades. Wicker Park's collection of independent boutiques draw the bulk of its visitors. Artists make themselves known among the emerging yet thriving gallery scene. River North is undoubtedly the prime spot for apartment therapy. Interior designers heavenly browse the shops and enormous warehouses of furniture and home design. In every neighborhood, trendy consignment shops attract the urban fashion you'll see all over the Chicago. as well as the weekly flea markets.

Kelly was very professional and nice, and we were able to check in quickly. We had an entire bottom floor to ourselves, including a little kitchenette with a fridge and stove. It was very spacious! The bed was comfortable and everything was very clean. In the bathroom soap, shampoo, and conditioner were all provided and there was a sink separated from the rest of the bathroom, so it was easy for both my husband and I to get ready at the same time! I am sure we will stay here again when we are in the area!

Anna2016-07-24T00:00:00Z

We were very comfortable!

Christen2017-05-24T00:00:00Z

My wife and I enjoyed our stay with Kelly and her husband. They both were very kind and knowledgeable about the surrounding area. The lower-level of their home is spacious and clean. The views from the back porch can not be beat. I would recommend them to anyone and would definitely stay with them again.

Curl up in this cozy oasis of luxury. Flickering candles, billowing fairytale curtains, and soft pillows make this room the ideal getaway for your next trip! Relax, surrounded by breezy trees, or soak in your private tub for two for an extra treat!
Disclaimer: Not a real treehouse. It's beautifully surrounded by trees, with wood paneling, so only *feels* like a treehouse.

The common areas are usually alive with activity. We are a communal household and cook and live comfortably together. Guests are welcome to interact as much or as little as they like. We love meeting awesome people, but if you would like to just do your own thing and come and go as you please, we respect your privacy. The room available is tucked away from the main part of the house, so you will not hear us or be heard if you enjoy a more solitary get away. Whatever's clever!

We have a very spacious room with ample closet space. The bathroom is just outside the bedroom and is completely private. Our neighborhood is peaceful and quiet, close to restaurants, market, and public transport.

Tommy and April's place was very welcoming and comfy. They were awesome hosts. The bedroom and bathroom were both very clean and conveniently close to each other. The area in which the house was located was also very quiet and peaceful.

Steve2016-12-29T00:00:00Z

Another great stay! April and Tommy are wonderful hosts. The living arrangements/bathroom are very close to each other upstairs. Very clean and cozy with a warm, genuine, homey feel. You will not disappointed. I'd love to stay there again!

Steve2017-04-09T00:00:00Z

April and Tommy were fantastic. Super kind. Great service. They have a wonderful and comfortable set up for travelers. You feel very comfortable. Highly recommended!

Esther2017-02-28T00:00:00Z

The room was a very good size. I realized the bath was shared an in the hallway. Be prepared to move between the room & bath. Also, the room is 16 steps up to the 2nd floor. I had no problem what so ever with the steps. It added to my fitbit accumulation. The neighborhood is very quiet with easily access to main roads to travel outside the neighborhood. I went downtown on my last evening there. Chicago was ~42 miles east.

Jean2017-02-05T00:00:00Z

April and Tommy's place was great! We stayed for almost 2 weeks and were very comfortable. They were super accommodating and very nice. They even provided coffee every morning, which was very welcoming and made me feel at home. The room and bathroom were spotless and the bed was very comfortable.

Courtney2016-11-03T00:00:00Z

The private room and bath were exactly as April and Tommy had listed and just what I needed after a long day of apartment tours! Tommy made me feel very welcome by graciously offering me traveling advice, thoughtfully providing me a great cup of coffee, and willingly sharing some advice about where I was apartment touring. Their beautiful new home made it feel like I was staying in a nice hotel but with a down-to-earth charm. I highly recommend a stay with them. You will love it!

Robert2016-09-18T00:00:00Z

April and Tommy were great. They made me feel like home. The place was really clean and offered to help me with everything. I strongly encourage anybody coming to this area to book with April. I have a great time!
